Changing InDesign Minion default font

Anthony Barnett

Whenever I start a new InDesign file it always opens with Minion as the default font. I can't stand it! (I don't mean I can't stand Minion, although it's true it doesn't work for my purposes.) I mean I can't stand that I cannot choose my own default font preference (which happens to be Centaur) for whenever I open a new InDesign file. Or can I? And I just cannot find out how to? Thanks for any pointers.

With NO DOCUMENT OPEN choose your font of choice (it will become the default font for all new docs)

Good gracious. That simple. Thank you so much, Les !
